Trevor May joins us today to talk about health, wellness, and nutrition from his unique perspective as a gamer, streamer, and professional baseballer.

In this episode, we dive deep into the importance of balancing screen time with proper rest, wellness, and nutrition. Trevor shares some of the techniques he uses to rest and get centered during the long streaming hours and gaming and how he prepares for those long sessions. We also talk about Trevor’s ADD and anxiety diagnosis, how he deals with them as a professional baseballer and heavy gamer, and meditation as a tool that helped him deal with the noise and the distractions of playing for a NY baseball team.
